What
Does my State Say?
Every state has specific laws that address child labor issues. When federal and
state standards are different, the rules that provide the most protection to youth workers will apply.
Employers must comply with both federal law and applicable state laws.
The following table provides a listing of states that have special websites or
initiatives (not state laws) designed for the Young Worker but may not be included on the YouthRules DOL
child labor laws map listing above.
